    I must have Pre PMS?  I was starting fights with H this morning solely because I am in a bad mood.  UGH!

  • All I want to do is complain this morning. 

    I think I am going to take a long walk tonight.  That usually puts me in a better mood.

  • I went to the library last night for the first time in a very long time.  I was hesitant to take out 2 books at a time because I hardly ever have time to read anymore.

    Well, I am halfway through my first book already.  Yay.  Looks like I will definitely have them done before they are due back.  Party!!!

  • I am going to have a bagel with cream cheese for lunch and that makes me giddy. 

    Stick out tongue

     

  • My CW gave us Hersey bars as an announcement for her new grandson....I CAN"T FIND IT...I REALLY need this bar. I think I put it in my work bag which I don't have with me.

    Can you scrounge up some change and hit up the vending machine?

  • This could be Nick's last softball game tonight if they lose.  I know it's bad, but I kind of hope they do Embarrassed  He's been playing softball since April- he played on 2 teams in the spring/summer, and one now in the fall.  I try to be the supportive wife and go to his games, but it's getting so old!

  • I really want to win something, and I feel like I'm "due" (lol) so I've been entering a lot of contests lately.
  • Speaking of the library, I got a job at ours yesterday :D I'll be working in the Youth Services department putting on programs and manning the desk. It's only 16 hours a week and they work out to where we won't be paying for daycare b/c the H will be home. I'm REALLY excited!!

    Wow thats a lot!  You are a super supportive wife.  :)

    My H is on a bowling league that started about 4 weeks ago and I'm already sick of it.  I think there is like 6 or 7 months left.  YUCK.

    That would definitely work.

    Because that would mean I'd be at home.  :)

  • LVila, congrats on the job!  That's awesome.  I think it would be really neat to work at a library.  Very zen.  Smile

    Wop, a pumpkin spice latte sounds good.  I was getting my decaf coffee at work this morning and someone saw me and said, "I thought only old people drink decaf!".  Tongue Tied

    Pre and post  PMSers, I hope you're feeling better soon!  Crummy PMS moods are no fun.  Also, reading your posts, something just dawned on me -- I haven't had PMS in months!!!  Woot!  Big Smile  Somehow, that didn't occur to me until just now even though the past year or two of PMS has been rather wicked.  (I haven't had a period since June because I got an IUD.  No period, no PMS! -- Sorry if TMI.)

  • We had girls night otu last night -- i'm too old for this.

    Boo for hangovers!

    I wish I could have a GNO.  I told a friend of mine that we have to go out downtown soon, even if it's just for a couple of drinks.  I need some girls only time.  We'll see if it happens.

    Very awesome. And somewhat close to teaching, too, right? I mean, it's not the same thing obviously, but you'll be able to put your skills guiding and directing kids to good use. Sounds like a good fit for right now.

    We do this like twice a year.  What's sad is when we get drunk, we end up walking to the liquor store.  We tend to make interesting purchases.

    I'm now the proud owner of honey flavored Wild Turkey.

  • I have a phone interview with Ceasar's this afternoon.

    Is it best to split hostas in the fall as opposed to the spring?  How exactly does one go about doing that?  Same question for day lillies.

    I need to do something about the giant hostas and day lillies in my garden, but I don't know what exactly, so I usually just pretend that they're not a problem even though they spill over onto the sidewalk.
